Post by: twcclassics on January 29, 2011, 09:17:29 PM: If you're referring to those who posts LFs on YouTube taken from their camera, they don't position them. They just hold them, while they bounce around and scan in and out. :rolleyes:

And almost all my videos come from DVDs.

A tuner simply connects to your cable connection and records the video

I'm sure there is. Tripods are a pretty standard accessory for cameras.

Most cameras and camcorders can be used with any tripod, since the vast majority of them have standard tripod mounts (really just a screw hole) built in.

You gotta be kidding me. You wasted an entire thread, three months of time, and you didn't even check the manufacturer's website until now!? :facepalm:
